    Hi,
    I would appreciate any help identifying this plant, we started off with one when my wife’s grandma died and each grandchild/relative was given the opportunity to choose a plant from her greenhouse, it therefore has great sentimental value to us. We have left it in our greenhouse, watering occasionally and it seems to have done really well, it produces offsets regulally which we litteraly break off from the main plant, pot in compost mixed with a little grit and hey presto, we now have around 50+ of these in varying sizes, pretty much everyone in our family now also has one so it would be nice to know the correct full name!
    The closest thing I can find is a Haworthia arachiomides but this does not look quite the same: http://www.belgicactus.be/succulentindex/succulent/haworthia_arachiomides.html until I started looking into this I didnt realise how many different varrieties of this type of plant there are out there!

    Many thanks in advance for any help you can provide with this and keep up the good work with the website, it is fasinating.
